Written question asked by Anas Sarwar (Labour) on Tuesday, 28 October 2014, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 30 October 2014. It was answered by Robert Buckland (Conservative) on Tuesday, 4 November 2014 on behalf of the Attorney General.
GPT Special Project Management
- Question
-
To ask the Attorney General, whether any representations have been made to him or to the Director of the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) stating that the public interest would be served by entering into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement in relation to the SFO's investigation of GPT Special Project Management Ltd.
- Answer
-
The Attorney General and I meet the Director frequently to discuss a variety of issues. However, as was the case with previous Administrations, it is not the Government’s policy to provide details of all such meetings.
The Serious Fraud Office announced in August 2012 that the Director had opened a criminal investigation into allegations concerning GPT and aspects of the conduct of their business in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, however it would not be appropriate to give a running commentary on the progress of current investigations.
